Greg Batton: My Life. In Boxes. May 27th!
Greg Batton: My Life. In Boxes. May 27th!

BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND after a sold out premiere performance on April 2nd!

Greg Batton has lived a very interesting life so it only makes sense for him to talk about it in a very interesting way!

20 boxes. 20 stories. The audience chooses which box which will make no two shows ever the same!

This original one man show will perform on Friday May 27th! Admission is $20pp plus a required 2 item minimum purchase (with at least 1 food item). Seating begins at 6p with the show starting at 7:30p.

More about Greg Batton:
Stand-up: I started doing stand-up comedy a few years ago. It’s not too different than doing talk radio, really. The big difference is the immediate feedback of a live audience. There is nothing like it. Big thanks to all those comedy folks who have helped guide and advise me along the way.

Actor: Hmmm…I have done some live theater over the years, some TV, That’s an area I would like to explore more in the future. And, of course, Asian Carpnado!! on the big screen.

Voice-Over: Industrial, movies, tv, and of course, radio. It’s an interesting way to make a living

Internet Minister: Yes, true. I have married two couples. Not sure they are legally married.

Dad: I have four kids. All ages and degrees of grownupness (is that a word?) Love, love, love all things Dad related.

Husband: Yvonne Greer and I have been married since 1995. Everyday is a crazy carnival ride with her. I know it’s corny but she does help me to be a better man.

Story Collector: I love stories. Telling them, sharing them and sometimes making them up. We all have them. I love them all.

Dreamer: I dream a lot. I dream of what I want to be. I dream of how I want the world to be. I dream about my next radio show. I dream about how I can do more for those in my small corner of the world.

Do Good. Be Nice. Go Home. Repeat.
